IronFox is Firefox ESR-based, completely de-Googled, has zero telemetry, and comes pre-hardened for privacy.

IronFox is a fork of Divested Computing Group's Mull Browser, based on Mozilla Firefox. Our goal is to continue the legacy of Mull by providing a free and open source, privacy and security-oriented web browser for daily use.

Version IronFox v140.0.4 released, .apk available for download here.

More discussion about the browser here.

Unfortunately, not available in FDroid yet.

You can get it from F-Droid if you add the Repository from Github and paste it into the app.

It's not on F-Droid, but it is on Accrescent

I've been using it as my phone browser and have zero complaints.

Just started using it. Love it, although it does hang when loading pages. Think that's due to the security/privacy features?

Don't know, might want to check out their git page and look for the issue, or report it.
